Snaking is Back in Black Ops 6

Snaking is Back in Black Ops 6

With players having sunk their teeth into Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 for a few days by now they’re getting cozy with the game’s new omni-movement system. This was a major addition to the overall gameplay formula with this new entry and it’s a welcome addition overall. Upon getting some hands-on time playing the game over the weekend I found omni-movement really smoothed out this overall playing experience for COD, but more often than not, a good thing sours quickly when exploits start to come to the surface. 

Veterans of Call Of Duty might’ve picked up the fact that an in game technique known to the Call Of Duty community as “snaking” has reared its head once more in Black Ops 6. For those unaware, snaking is when you rapidly switch between a crouched and prone position while behind cover. And for those of you who prefer more of a visual representation of this in action check out this post from X user @_TheRotation.This gives the player the ability to get a view from behind cover all without having to expose yourself to enemy fire. This strategy was a very valuable asset in prior entries but when you throw omni-movement in the mix you can achieve this at a more rapid pace. 

Snaking looks RIDICULOUS this year

Once upon a time snaking was once a huge topic of conversation within Call Of Duty back in 2023 within the Call of Duty League. So much so the league chose to outright ban the technique from play via a “gentleman’s agreement”. This posed problems when enforcing the ban and became more of a question of if the player in question was really snaking or just trying to stay moving behind cover. As far as Black Ops 6 goes, snaking is (as of right now) free to use as much as you see fit to give you a leg up on the competition.
